In-Between

video installation

Diana Carolina Garcia Lecompte / Colombia

Translation as a method to move from one place to another, not finding its partner on the other side, remains trapped in the place of the non-place, where it finally does not exist, the video installation is its metaphor.

...IN FINAL, YOU MAKE DRAWINGS...

video installation

Be Monkey (Diana Isabel Ocampo, Zuly Molina, Carlos Torres, Gabriel Alarcón) / Santiago Quiceno / Colombia

... "In any case, it is undeniable that it is our 'little drawings' that make it possible for the world to be 'read', for us to interact with each other, and for every human being to process and convert tons of data into knowledge." ..

A slightly ironic and funny tour of everything that lies behind the life of a designer through infographics, taking up the sometimes offensive phrase: .."You make little drawings"... to show the path that exists in the transformation of data into knowledge and the role of the designer in this process.

Ecological Awakening - A recovery of lost sounds

Soundscape

Aura María Vega / Andrés Rozo, Oscar Rojas / Antonio Rodríguez / Ricardo Moreno / Luis Astorquiza / Colombia

It seeks to recycle the sounds collected in our daily lives and which are no longer easily perceived, it seeks to extract the sound from its context and superimpose it in another location to denote its urban character as a city and to be able to remember it and relate it to our environment. In our daily lives we have become accustomed to moving through a world of sound that most of us are not aware of and that grows with the appearance of technological advances.

blood counts

Soundscape

PLUG Collective (Enrique Franco, Eliana Corredor and Joaquín Llorca) / Colombia

It presents the particular relationship between Cali cinematography and vampire cinema. Why this reiterated inclination towards a tropical gothic cinema? The question is elaborated in a kind of performance that builds a meta-narrative from fragments linked thanks to technology. In this way, the wide and suggestive semantic degree of the concept "vampirism" is approached from pieces of films and sound clichés that are mixed at the moment with music and live camera. The piece seeks to transcend the mere visual game starting from a cinematography that had a meaning in the national context and that serves as a leitmotiv to structure the various proposed stories. In the same way, it traces a path back to the performative origins of the cinematograph, which in this case extends to the public who is invited to participate due to the work of technology.

Inner Landscape

video installation

Ana Isabel Diaz / Colombia

Installation of a series of paintings, videos, engravings and texts, through which it is intended to take the viewer into the world of violence against women and, therefore, create a space for reflection on a problem that strongly afflicts our society. The paintings and engravings are based on endoscopic images of the uterus. The videos are real video hysteroscopies, which have been intervened with sound and testimonial texts from battered women in which they express fear, shame, lack of self-esteem and even denial of their problem.

Mindscape Series

Fernando Velasquez / Brazil

The mindscapes series seeks to metaphorically visualize brain activities.

silence

Video

Ava Lanche / Germany

The German Silence, by Ava Lanche, is an effective denunciation against the handling of information by the media. Its title refers to the olympic silence (of the media) about the various abuses against human rights perpetrated throughout the world at the same time that these (the media) express themselves with solemn diplomacy about prolonged periods of peace that do not exist . The director lets the objects ring but not the voices, clearly criticizing the materialistic world of the present, where dehumanization is a flagrant characteristic but of little importance to humans themselves. The images of its four minutes, as the cinema demands, say much more than the long parliaments of several of the short films presented that date.
